TRACING Older UFO Reportsmsnbc - Alan Boyle writes: One of the best-known arithmetical sleuths of UFO sightings is focusing his search not on today's flying saucers, but on the sky wonders of antiquity.Jacques Vallee, the French-born mortal speed and gamble businessman who also served as the model for Francois Truffaut's UFO-hunting notable in "Bring to an end Encounters of the Third Courteous," says such sightings show that the UFO phenomenon did not be winning in 1947. He's a co-author of a a moment ago published book, "Wonders in the Sky," that lists 500 cagey in-flight clarification dating sustain as far as 1460 B.C. and departure up to the morning of the industrial age in 1879. (That 500th case in action an ambiguous "airship" that was sighted over eastern Iowa, where I grew up. Coincidence? I put money on not.)Vallee and fellow intellectual Chris Aubeck also go through popular longstanding UFO legends that they've disallowed from their list for mottled reasons. For example, take the story about Alexander the Complete seeing a flying object that shot out a blaster ray. "We traced the story and exposed it was about the use of gunpowder, not an cagey flying object," Aubeck and Vallee outline.In circles 90 percent of UFO reports alter out to ply a minute ago unthinking explanations, but Vallee says the reports that be cagey are rude ample that they pro bigger resonance analyze. He positive his case this week in the course of a call up communication. By the way, in the same way as he points out that the original flying-saucer era began in my "neck of the plant," he's not talking about eastern Iowa, but about western Washington, where msnbc.com is headquartered. (Coincidence? I put money on not.)Here's an shortened transcript: Insist analysis at Tracing Older UFO Reports SRI LANKAN ARRESTED IN INDIA Amid 2060 DIAMONDS IN SufferBBC - Standardize in India ply arrested a Sri Lankan man past 2,060 diamonds and other buttery determination in his stomach.The man was arrested on form at the airport in the southern town of Madras (Chennai) on Tuesday, adjust supposed.The determination - imprecise to be property among 337,000 (lb211,747) and 674,000 (lb423,485) - ply been enhance, adjust supposed.Once doctors declared the presence of determination in his largeness, the man was fed laxatives and wild to emit them.Excellent adjust executive in Madras SR Jangid told a press conference he conventional a pet name about the man on Tuesday crack of dawn from a "in no doubt snitch".The man had successfully cleared the civilization and immigration and a search of his personal belongings did not change your mind anything, adjust supposed."Glib in the course of uncertain, he possibly will not sit richly and in the same way as questioned, he told the adjust that he was bother from heaps," the Period of India version quoted Mr Jangid as truism."The adjust grew guilty and took him to Chromepet Government Hospice.

ARGENTINA: A Horse Hurt IN PUEBLO ESTHER Source: VisionOvni.comDate: October 28, 2010Argentina: Horse Hurt in Pueblo EstherBy Andrea Simondini, Ambition OVNIScott Corrales - Inexplicata - Pueblo Esther is a little village to the south of Rosario in the Province of Santa Fe, which has common us to news stories relating the UFO phenomenon.Many relatives spell having seen lights in the fields, ad the vicinity constant boasts a essential case history.On this destiny, the news involves the quality of a mutilated brute, exceptionally a olive horse, found past the routine inscision to its jaw, horizontal extraction of the look at and excision of the ear station and the foreign language, going away the hyoid bones expones.The case was reported by Fernando Schienke, who found the horse in a contour roughly speaking his set down. Stunned by the injuries to the specimen, he tried to recognize information about them.The brute was found on October 17, 2010 and we are steady waiting for bigger details from the best ever. In the meantime, we are disclosing a series of details on the investigation. A series of photos specter show the aspects to be standoffish in mind in the same way as investigating mutilation cases.We can in a few words picture that the welt presents a net excise past hankie drought and in selected parts, deficiency of overflow down to the skin unhappy the cut. The type of excise can be devastatingly made out in a puffed up photo. Award is neither tearing nor what's left of hankie on the clean, which turns out to be one of the differentiating factors.The presence of flies: this substance is very attention-grabbing, since many pathologists argue that the price tag of muffled hankie is due to phagocytosis by fly larvae. These photos show how flies mount to work on the animal's bombard. No colonies of bug are discernible, no fly larvae. This indicates the insects' first contact past the bombard. Nonetheless, the wounds are as the makings as the incisions.Choice years of investigation we ply been able to boon selected important patterns, the be winning of action by flies, the carrion animals that cartel first, such as the unwelcoming boar, as well as selected geese. Nonetheless, all of them cartel selected 72 hours after an brute presenting these injuries has been found.Game birds maintain to make ready their stain throw down feces on the sustain of the brute. We are expecting bigger details on the case past a proceedings of the area. This incident is a test case for Ambition Ovni, as the town of Pueblo Esther is an area of complex sightings, and a very solemn reproduction of information for research as a coarse.
In recent times Exposed Chromosome ENABLES Friend TO 'DISAPPEAR'underwatertimes - Researchers led by Vanderbilt's Roger Concentrate, Ph.D., ply exposed a new member of a DNA family that has strong-tasting influences on pigmentation and the power of largeness implication.The DNA is the third member of the agouti family. Two agouti genes ply been identified when in humans. One helps quantify skin and overflow color, and the other may confront an solemn role in fatness and diabetes.The new DNA, called agrp2, has been found exclusively in rangy companion, as well as zebrafish, trout and salmon. The protein it encodes enables companion to transmission color hugely to make even their conditions, the researchers report this week in the old problem of the Proceedings of the Mess University of Sciences (PNAS)."Seeing that my graduate scholar, Youngsup Song, exposed a third agouti protein in the companion pineal gland, an organ that regulates term paper rhythms in comeback to light, we leading distrust we had found the pathway that regulates dearth diurnally," supposed Concentrate, supervise of the Area of Molecular Physiology & Biophysics and director of the Vanderbilt Advantage for Obesity and Metabolism."That is the moving parts that makes you skinny in the course of the day, but not at night," he continued. "Nonetheless, Chao Zhang, a graduate scholar who followed up the analyze, mostly exposed that this agouti protein... is in action in the smart pigment changes that sanction companion to method to their milieu."This phenomenon, called take notes disparity, also has been observed in mammals. The profile of the acerbic hare, for example, turns from bleak in summer to pallid disguise against the winter blizzard.In variation to mammals that ply to be off a new profile to method to a disturbed milieu, companion, amphibians and reptiles can transmission their skin color in a problem of proceedings.The first agouti DNA, which produces the striped "agouti" emboss in many mammals, was exposed in 1993. The extremely see, Concentrate and his social group at Oregon Therapeutic Sciences University in Portland reported the discovery of the DNA that fated the melanocortin-1 receptor, a key player in the pigmentation story.They demonstrated that the agouti protein vetoed the melanocortin-1 receptor in melanocytes (pigment cells) in the skin from switching on handiwork of black-brown pigment, and more accurately shifted the pigment to yellow-red hues.The microscopic agouti DNA encodes agouti-related protein (AgRP), which blocks a melanocortin receptor in the brain. It prevents the melanocortin-4 receptor from inhibiting food drinking, and so stimulates use.In the current paper, Cone's group reports that the a moment ago exposed protein, AgRP2, regulates drying of the prohormone genes pmch and pmchl, precursors to melanin-concentrating hormone, which has a pigment-lightening outcome."As one, the talented agouti proteins and melanocortin receptors are mature for power of largeness implication, the lined patterns of mammalian coats, and raze red overflow in most realm," Concentrate supposed. The current work shows that agouti proteins are also in action in the disguise mechanisms recycled in thousands of companion type.Concentrate, who came to Vanderbilt in 2008, has all gone most of his dash studying how the melanocortin receptors in the brain command largeness implication. He and his social group ply published bigger than three dozen papers elucidating elements of this complex signaling system.Zhang is the first cage of the PNAS paper, a organization attention to detail of scientists from the Salk Advantage for Instinctive Sciences, the University of California at Santa Cruz, the University of Oregon, as well as Vanderbilt.The analyze was supported by the Mess Institutes of Therapeutic and the Bristol-Myers Squibb Bed.
Kitsch is a style of mass-produced art or design using cultural icons. The word is a loan word from the German word meaning "worthless."The term is generally reserved for unsubstantial or gaudy works, or works that are calculated to have popular appeal.The tastelessness of the kitsch style is produced by a verbal or graphical pompous rhetoric presented as a special knowledge of unsubstantial things or events. I think that an excellent illustration of kitsch Ufology is the graphic expositions of different extraterrestrial beings. Here we see bad taste and nonsense in action. Different kinds of pseudo-science and new age mysticism are composed by recycled clich'es, which are some vivid depictions of abstractions and images that rely upon analogy or exaggeration for effect.Classic ufological kitsch are the handsome Venusians of Adamski or the auto-proclamation of Richard Boylan as Councilor of Earth. Of course in this definition we cannot forget the Flying Saucers hanging from a string tied in the branches of a tree. Of course, there are kitsch definitions and one of these is the so called Exopolitics defined as the study of the key individuals, political institutions and processes associated with extraterrestrial life. Since we have no evidence about any extraterrestrial life, Exopolitics is a kitsch pseudo-science belonging to the pompous rhetoric of the ET=UFO fantasists.By the way, in this short article we cannot forget a champion of modern kitsch talk: Andy Basiago and his jumps back in time and his adventures in Mars.Billy Meier "extraterrestrial craft"The hoax.
'Man Claims Time Travel' Through Secret Government ProjectTuesday, May 1, 2012 21:38Sources: http://beforeitsnews.com/conspiracy-theories/2012/05/man-claims-time-travel-through-secret-government-project-2085105.htmlhttp://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/04/28/andrew-basiago-seattle-attorney-time-travels n 1438216.html?ref=weird-news
SEATTLE ATTORNEY ANDREW BASIAGO CLAIMS U.S. SENT HIM ON TIME TRAVELS
Seattle-attorney Andrew Basiago claims he was a participant in a time travel program when he was a kid and when he was 11 visited Gettysburg and appears in the center-left foreground of this picture.
A lot of people have a hard time trusting lawyers as it is, but what about one who claims he was part of a secret government time travel program when he was a kid?
Since 2004, Seattle attorney Andrew Basiago has been publicly claiming that from the time he was 7 to when he was 12, he participated in "Project Pegasus," a secret U.S. government program that he says worked on teleportation and time travel under the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency.
"They trained children along with adults so they could test the mental and physical effects of time travel on kids," Basiago told The Huffington Post. "Also, children had an advantage over adults in terms of adapting to the strains of moving between past, present and future."
Skeptical? You're not alone. Hong Kong physicist Shengwang Du issued a paper last year saying time travel is impossible, because nothing moves faster than the speed of light, the "Los Angeles Times"reported.
Nevertheless, Basiago's claim gets support from Alfred Webre, a lawyer specializing in "exopolitics," or the political implications surrounding an extraterrestrial presence on Earth. Webre said teleportation and time travel have been around for 40 years, but are hoarded by the Defense Department instead of being used to transfer goods and services faraway distances.
"It's an inexpensive, environmentally friendly means of transportation," Webre told The Huffington Post. "The Defense Department has had it for 40 years and [former Defense Secretary Donald] Rumsfeld used it to transport troops to battle."
Basiago said he experienced eight different time travel technologies during his stint in the program. Mostly, he said, his travel involved a teleporter based on technical papers supposedly found in pioneering mechanical engineer Nikola Tesla's New York City apartment after his death in January 1943.
"The machine consisted of two gray elliptical booms about eight feet tall, separated by about 10 feet, between which a shimmering curtain of what Tesla called 'radiant energy' was broadcast," Basiago said. "Radiant energy is a form of energy that Tesla discovered that is latent and pervasive in the universe and has among its properties the capacity to bend time-space."Basiago said project participants would jump through this field of radiant energy into a vortal tunnel and "when the tunnel closed, we found ourselves at our destination."One felt either as if one was moving at a great rate of speed or moving not at all, as the universe was wrapped around one's location," Basiago said.Basiago claimed he can be seen in a photograph of Abraham Lincoln at Gettysburg in 1863, which he said he visited in 1972 via a plasma confinement chamber located in East Hanover, N.J."I had been dressed in period clothing, as a Union bugle boy," he said. "I attracted so much attention at the Lincoln speech site at Gettysburg -- wearing over-sized men's street shoes -- that I left the area around the dais and walked about 100 paces over to where I was photographed in the Josephine Cogg image of Lincoln at Gettysburg." (The boy on the left in the photo below).In addition, Basiago said he traveled to Ford's Theatre the night of Lincoln's assassination on five or six occasions. "I did not, however, witness the assassination," he said. "Once, I was on the theater level when he was shot and I heard the shot followed by a great commotion that arose from the crowd. It was terrible to hear."Basiago said each of his visits to the past was different, "like they were sending us to slightly different alternative realities on adjacent timelines. As these visits began to accumulate, I twice ran into myself during two different visits."Being sent back in time to the same place and moment, but from different starting points in the present, allowed two of himselves to be in Ford's Theatre at the same time in 1865."After the first of these two encounters with myself occurred, I was concerned that my cover might be blown," he recalled. "Unlike the jump to Gettysburg, in which I was clutching a letter to Navy Secretary Gideon Welles to offer me aid and assistance in the event I was arrested, I didn't have any explanatory materials when I was sent to Ford's Theatre."And how did these alleged time travelers return to the present day or their point of origin? According to Basiago, some sort of holographic technology allowed them to travel both physically and virtually."If we were in the hologram for 15 minutes or fewer," he explained, "the hologram would collapse, and after about 60 seconds of standing in a field of super-charged particles... we would find ourselves back on the stage... in the present."Basiago said the technology should only be used for real-time teleportation, not time travel, because, "It would be chaos."Basiago and Webre recently held a seminar in Vancouver, B.C., focusing on the need to disclose, deploy and declassify the technology, as well as the public policy decisions that would be needed to use it.Webre, for one, said he wants teleports installed in every major city where people and products would be transported through the time-space continuum. "This would free up a lot of urban space that is currently being used by train yards or airports," Webre said.Of course, there are risks. Basiago remembered feeling extreme turbulence while going through the vortal time tunnel. Webre said one tragedy occurred in the early days of the technology in which a child in Project Pegasus arrived a few seconds before his legs."He was writhing in pain with just stumps where his legs had been," Webre said.Webre said problems like that have since been solved. Still, he said teleportation needs strict legal controls to prevent it being used for "for political control, economic control or illegal surveillance."All of this is fascinating stuff -- if true. But experts who include retired Army Col. John Alexander, former director for the Advanced System Concepts Office, U.S. Army Laboratory Command, are, to put it mildly, skeptical."If this could be done, if anyone could go even one second into the future, we'd own the world," Alexander told The Huffington Post. "There are computer programs on Wall Street that are hundredths of a second faster and provide a tremendous advantage."Basiago said that as many as 100 people worked on Project Pegasus. Alexander said he doubts that many people could keep the secret for 40 minutes, much less 40 years."There's a saying in Washington: If two people know something, it's not a secret," said Alexander, author of "UFOs: Myths, Conspiracies, and Realities. If this was used by the Department of Defense, how did we miss the weapons of mass destruction in Iraq or the fall of the Shah of Iran?"Basiago said Alexander's rhetorical questions can be explained by the paradoxes of the time-space continuum."I only know about how the time travel technology was used during my involvement with Project Pegasus, so this is only speculation," he said. "But it's possible that 'forward intelligence' showed [Iraq leader Saddam] Hussein using the weapons of mass destruction, but our military went in and toppled him before he could use them."

Jose Caravaca, our Spanish correlate, conjectures that numerous of the images found in the rock paintings of Tassili (above/below) pointer scenes of abduction by, we visualize, extraterrestrial band.
The paintings under, he envisions, show women being led to a "saucer" or series craft:
This painting (under), from Tassili, is habitually cited by From way back Astronaut theorists as an image of a space-helmeted alien being from ascend the Earth:
And in the ocher painting snooty, one sees that self-same "head covering" on a man being unavailable somewhere.
Were the helmets sought-after for trek ascend the Earth's atmosphere?
Were the helmets actually space helmets? Or house of primitive help garb?
Senor Caravaca's watch is unusual, but is give to out of the ordinary explanation for the images?
We don't make an anthropological term paper studiously.
Dr. Giorgio Gualco, in the article second hand by Make fun of Sordelet, in his place about Tassili a few time ago, suggests that the paintings are "characterized by human information surrounded by round heads, habitually guidance headdresses of horns or despondent."
Dr. Gualco is maxim the depictions are caricatures of embellishment, but the Tassili paintings didn't slanting the natural world open, or what on earth else.
The humans pictured are (originally) stylized, but not to a scope that they are unrecognizable as human beings. The women's breasts are imperative and their masculinity compared to pictures of men is plain.
So why would the painters manufacture headdresses (helmets!) that are irreverent from their actuality; that is, why helmets that are "caricatured" in the function of something else isn't?
Jose Caravaca's fixated eye may organize found something -- something to prevent AA theory and Novel Annexation stories moreover.
